anp 300: human anatomy; lab instructor
"Ashley is a really great teacher. She expressed everything in a way we could understand, and helped make everything relevant by giving us context (in body systems and pathologies). One of the best instructors that I've had at Stony Brook."
|
"I loved lab, it was my favorite part, because you actually got to physically touch and see what you were learning. Ashley is phenomenal. Super relateable, absolutely loved her."
|
"Absolutely loved her! Made the lab extremely interesting. Made the content understandable and made sure we knew what we were learning."

ANT 316: evolution of the human brainThis course provides a detailed overview of how the human brain has evolved, placing it in a broader primate, mammalian and vertebrate context. Emphasizing the interaction between brain and behavior, the course will detail how adaptation has shaped the brain across millions of years of evolution. The central theme throughout the course will be to what extent we can consider the human brain as ‘special’ compared with other species and, if so, what sets it apart (Teaching assistant for: Dr. Jeroen Smears, SBU).

ANT 104: Introduction to archaeologyA survey of the development, methods, and applications of archaeology (Teaching assistant for: Dr. John Shea, SBU).
|
ant 305: the human brainThis course is an upper-level introduction to the basis of complex human behavior in the brain, focused on human brain structure and function. It gives significant attention to brain evolution and comparative neuroanatomy. The overall goal is to master the anatomy underlying higher human capacities, keeping in mind how our brain's evolutionary past can inform our understanding of how the brain works now (Teaching assistant for: Dr. Mel Konner, Emory University).
